After some recent larcenies on Thurman Street, Second Precinct Officer Brian Rogers focused on that area during his patrol. After seeing a truck parked in an unusual spot, he set up a perimeter and later stopped the truck when it tried to leave. In the truck bed, he found a large amount of copper and lawn care equipment that he determined had just been stolen. The person was arrested and charged with several crimes. Good work!
